What size wheels 7" X 15" ?

My mind in numb from spending the last several days skulking about the GL pages as well as the Super Beetles Only site. (The link to the “Tyre Bible” site – wow, back to grade school for me – headache!)

From what I have learned thus far, I first need to determine the wheel size and type (plus the tire) before deciding on brakes and suspension. Because I will be running just with a 1776 for the next few years and the stock gearbox I think that I should go with a smaller/lighter wheel and tire.

I am presently thinking of 7” x 15” on the front and 8” x 15” on the rear (or possibly 6” and 7” respectively). I like teledial and Fuchs. Does this sound like the right size and wheel for a humble powered GL?
